Kath the Tug-boat Driver
Hi everyone. Most of our Youth Crew joined last night and spent today (before we sailed) looking over the replica HM Bark Endeavour, visiting Old Tom at the Eden Killer Whale Museum and going to the beach – a great way to start off a voyage.At 4.00pm we cast off lines and sailed with the help of Kath, the Tug-boat Driver, as the wind was too strong to get off the wharf by ourselves. We motored across the bay accompanied by a pair of very lively and very well fed dolphins and anchored for the night.We have a new chef with us for this voyage, Colin ‘Mac’ Mackenzie, who is preparing some gastronomical delights for us before we go on our first climb. It’s great to have him back. The Youth Crew are just about to go on a tour of the ship. They are very friendly bunch and they are settling-in very well.Speak tomorrowAndrew Davis

Thank you Tarvi, Kaeden and Matt for your narrative of today's events. Intentions are to remain at anchor in Hunters Bay, just off HMAS Penguin, home of the RAN Diving School, a place close to my heart, having spent many a day there under training as a young Officer! The plan is to weigh anchor and proceed to HMAS Waterhen, in Waverton, to pick up our Community Day Sailors from the Windgap Foundation and take them for a sail around the harbour for 3 hours. The Youth Crew will help us host our visitors and give them an experience of Young Endeavour. We will drop them back to Waverton and then proceed to anchor in the harbour where we will have a good view of the Bridge and the Opera House for the Youth Crew's last night onboard. Until tomorrow. Yours Aye, Captain Mike
